Chapter 7/8 Tib/Fib Distal Femur
Proximal Tibia • _________________ Condyle – Processes on outer margins • ______________________ • Medial and Lateral Intercondylar Tubercles
Proximal Tibia • _________________ – Articular facets (articulates with distal femur) • _________________ – Proximal anterior protrusion • _________________ – Anterior ridge
Proximal Fibula • _______________ – Superior pointed portion of head • _______________ – Rounded aspect • _______________ – Tapered area inferior to head
Tib/Fib • 2 Joints • ________________ • ________________
Tib / Fib Imaging Routine • AP • Lateral • 40” SID • 65 kVp
AP Tib / Fib • Pt Supine • Place knee and _______________ • Ensure _____________is on cassette • Center at mid tibia • Collimate to skin
Lateral Tib / Fib • Position for _______________ projection • Flex ______________ • Place lateral aspect against IR • Ensure _______________is on cassette • Center to mid leg • Collimate to skin
Distal FemurAnterior • _________________ • (Intercondylar Sulcus) (Trochlear Groove) Smooth, Shallow depression. • ________________ – Body
Distal FemurPosterior • __________________ • Rounded distal portion medial • __________________ – Rounded distal portion lateral • __________________ – Notch between condyles
Distal FemurPosterior • ________________ – Lateral distal projection • ________________ – Medial distal projection • __________________ –Off of posteriolateral aspect of medial condyle
Important Considerations • Femur is ____________ • Angle between __________ • Medial Condyle • More ___________________ • Adductor Tubercle • Not seen on proper _______________
Distal Femur Imaging Routine • AP • Lateral • 40” SID • 70 – 75 kVp
AP Distal Femur • Pt Supine • Rotate leg _________________or until __________________ line parallel with IR • Ensure Knee is imaged • Center to mid cassette • Collimate to skin
Lateral Distal Femur • Position for ________________projection • Place lateral aspect against IR • May need to put ____________over affected or ____________ to affected • Flex affected ______________ • _______________ perpendicular to cassette • Center to mid cassette
